Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has been nominated for the Premier League Player of the Month for October.

The 23-year-old has gone from strength to strength since establishing himself as Mikel Arteta's number one and put in a man-of-the-match performance against Leicester City last time out.

Ramsdale came up with eight saves at the King Power Stadium - including a fingertip stop from James Maddison's goal-bound free kick before thwarting Jonny Evans's follow-up from a yard out - while he conceded just three goals over the course of the month.

Ramsdale's performances have seen him named as one of eight players up for October's award, with Valentino Livramento and Ben Chilwell representing two more defensive nominations.

Maxwel Cornet, Phil Foden, Declan Rice, Mohamed Salah and Youri Tielemans complete the list, with Michail Antonio and Cristiano Ronaldo scooping the first two awards of the season.

Ramsdale already boasts five clean sheets from eight games for the Gunners in all competitions since his summer arrival from Sheffield United.
